KCTC
2020
A virtual experience unlike any other… Standing for Key Club Training Conference, this year’s KCTC was the first I’ve ever been to. Regardless of whether or not this was your first though was moot though, I think. Having over 400 Key Clubbers all over the CNH district in a single Zoom call was a surreal experience. Ultimately, I believe I still got to see the heart of KCTC—workshops and bonding included!

double good fundraiser. For our July fundraiser, AHS Key has organized a Double Good Fundraiser, where you and your loved ones can order popcorn which will be shipped to your house (no direct contact so it’s be 100% safe!). All the funds raised will be donated to the Pediatric Trauma Program (PTP), one of our preferred charities! Not to mention, our fundraiser is doubly acting as a merch and boba competition, allowing any one of our members and officers to enter to win free Key merchandise and boba! Want to participate? All you will need to do is download the app “Double Good” and make your own pop up shop for AHS Key’s fundraiser. Join using the event code: DNX QXM. You will be able to start sharing your link from July 16th and you will have 4 days to sell popcorn to as many people as possible. The winner will be announced towards the end of the fundraiser. Good luck!
letters of love. With COVID-19, it is incredibly easy to feel lonely and isolated from others. This issue is affecting seniors in particular, many of whom are unable to see their loved ones currently. That’s why we’ve organized a service event dedicated to writing physical letters and cards for the elderly through Love For The Elderly's Letters of Love project! Letters are a simple yet great way to make conversations with someone to make them feel loved and appreciated! We will also be watching Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse while card making together! On Saturday, July 25th from 3-4 PM, look forward to this Zoom/Netflix Party combo! Emails with the links will be sent the day before if you RSVP at tinyurl.com/ahskeyletters20 by July 23rd! Visit Love For The Elderly's website if you would like more information! [ https://lovefortheelderly.org/letters ]

STAY SAFE DURING QUARANTINE. On Monday, July 13th, Governor Gavin Newsom reinstated the halt to all indoor activities at most facilities. In light of the renewed lockdown, make effort to follow proper quarantine protocols.
Stay at home. Of course, it’s okay to take a short walk, but avoid large crowds in general and always maintain a safe distance away from others. Always wear a mask. If you do find yourself needing to stay out for a long period of time, always wear a mask. It saves lives. Wash your hands frequently for 20 seconds and with soap. Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth. Hands can carry some of the most germs. Seek care early. If you do begin to show symptoms of having contracted COVID-19, such as fever, cough, or difficulty breathing, get tested early.
We, at American High School Key Club, stand in solidarity with the Black Lives Matter Movement. We do not and will not tolerate racial intolerance, hate, or injustice in the space that we have created. It’s time for change.
